Best Campgrounds near Bloomingburg, NY

935 Reviews

The Catskill region surrounding Bloomingburg, New York features multiple established campgrounds that accommodate various camping styles. Jellystone Park in Gardiner, Oakland Valley Campground in Cuddebackville, and Neversink River Resort provide options for tent camping, RV hookups, and cabin rentals. Most facilities within a 30-mile radius offer amenities like showers, drinking water, and fire rings, with several including electrical hookups. Winding Hills Park and Korns Campgrounds provide alternatives with different pricing structures and amenity levels for those seeking developed camping experiences.

Campground availability generally runs from April through October, with peak season falling between Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends. "Weekend around the lake is more like a park with day-trippers, as opposed to serene wilderness/lakeside camping," noted one visitor about the region's water-adjacent camping areas. Many campgrounds require reservations, especially during summer months when New York City residents seek weekend getaways. Weather conditions vary by elevation, with higher areas experiencing cooler temperatures even during summer. Several campgrounds enforce quiet hours and have specific regulations regarding alcohol consumption, generator use, and pet policies. Cell service is limited or non-existent at many locations, particularly those in more remote settings.

Campers consistently highlight the scenic water features near many established campgrounds. Several reviewers mentioned enjoying kayaking and swimming opportunities at locations like North-South Lake Campground, where "sites are tucked away in the trees for privacy." The region's campgrounds vary significantly in terms of site spacing and privacy levels. Some offer secluded, wooded settings while others feature more open arrangements. Wildlife sightings, including bears, deer, and various bird species, are commonly reported by campers. Family-friendly amenities such as playgrounds, hiking trails, and fishing opportunities appear in many reviews as positive aspects of the camping experience. Proximity to natural attractions in the Catskill Mountains provides additional recreational options beyond the immediate campground facilities.

    High Point State Park Campground

    Relaxing and Well-Maintained

    Stayed 2 nights and it was really nice. Camping for summer is pretty limited to Sawmill Lake, as the other locations are for groups or winter camping. Camps are secluded from each other and most if not all have an elevated space to put tents or chairs. Each place comes with a lamp hang, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Bathrooms are spaced out. No running water except for pump founded outside of the bathrooms. Toilets are pump flushed. Showers are only located INSIDE High Point State Park, not throughout the campsites, but entry is free for campers. One hiking trail is accessible in Sawmill campground, 3 others are accessible on the road outside of the campground and the rest are located inside the park. When you arrive you have to check in with the park office for your campsite tag. Hours are 8-4. Park officials come through the campsites pretty regularly, a few times a day which is nice. Areas are clean and well maintained.

    Croton Point Park

    Not the Best Place to Go in the Northeast By a Longshot

    Croton Point Campground is a modest little campground, located along the Hudson River within Croton Point Park in NY. In addition to camping, the park itself offers many of its own attractions, including swimming, hiking, kayaking, cabin rentals, and a host of other family-oriented activities just along the Hudson. 

    The park, which is honestly probably the largest attraction here, is located just an hour and a half outside of the city. This proximity is both its perk and its downfall, as the park itself, but particularly the campground, has become laden with all sorts of inexplicable and burdensome rules, endless guidelines, and restrictions only a New York State-run bureaucracy could ever make sense of, let alone hope to justify. 

    This includes all manner of restrictions on how you can camp, where you can camp, what equipment can be used, and use in relation to what particular site you may have been lucky enough to reserve. Much of this you can understand while imagining what may have taken place here to bring them to such measures, but it doesn't make it any easier to contend with. 

    In terms of the actual camping conditions Both the tenting section and RV sites are each very clustered together, and quite crowded, with regular patrols🚓(actual patrols) being made day and night, by both the Park Rangers and what appears to be general park staff members, all looking to see if you or your family might be doing something that they might consider outside of the guidelines or not in compliance with the many restrictions. 

    This is not to say you can't possibly have a good time here. It just might mean being a bit more diligent toward reviewing the potential legitimacy of your normal camping routine to ensure it meets with many restrictions and guidelines imposed, while also making yourself comfortable with some fairly regular surveillance during your stay here. These all being things we hoped to get away from while camping ourselves It just turned out to be a bit much for our particular liking.

    Gravel lot

    It’s a gravel parking lot. Plenty of shade. No one bothered me.

    Little Pond Campground

    Small sites and no service

    I didn’t hate this campground, but I won’t be going back.

    It’s a nice campground and perfect for single/family camping. I would not choose this location if I were taking a group of people. The sites are on the smaller side and many have slanted entrances.

    The campground is kept clean and the bathrooms were tidy. The campground is in bear country so you have to be mindful about leaving food out when you’re not at the site or asleep.

    There is a pond and there’s kayaks, canoes, etc for rent. The beach area is clean and the water is clear. I was there middle of August and the water was not cold and quite comfortable. There are some water front sites that you can use to access the water with a boat or paddle board.

    Cell service is non existent and they have a pay phone near the entrance booth where you can use to make/receive phone calls. It’s a 20 min drive back into town to get cell service. That’s a non- starter for me. It would be beneficial if they had service near the entrance at least for people to check in with Family.

    Peaceful Valley Campsite

    STAY FAR AWAY!!!

    Stay clear!  Owner is a rude, nasty, vile human being!  He doesn’t care about paying costumers, they are a nuisance to him!  He overcharges customers constantly.  Cabins and bathrooms are filthy.  0 stars

    Kittatinny Campground

    Not worth the money or time

    If we could rate this a 0 we would.  We were expecting a weekend of kayaking and relaxation when in fact we got an overcrowded, noisy and dirty weekend that was overpriced.  I will give the river a 10, it was beautiful, welcoming and refreshing in the warm sun.  We arrived at about 8:00 in the evening with several camps blaring different genre of music, not a problem, considering we still like it as loud as possible sometimes, but it didn't end at quiet time, it continue until well over midnight.  The campsites are so close together it was like being packed into a sardine can.  The campsite across the pathway didn't have their dog on a lead and we woke up with a pile of dog excrement next to our trailer, that was a howdy-do morning for ya.  We were super excited to take our kayaks out on the river, paddle up stream and float down with our pup, but we were told that we couldn't launch from this location.  (What kind of crap is that)  This location was a receiving location only and "absolutely no launching" was allowed.  If you are looking for a party spot to come with your friends, this is definitely the place for you!  If your looking for a chill place to camp next to the river where you can tube, kayak and enjoy your peaceful weekend, this is NOT the place.  The amount of money we spent for 2 nights was outrageous for such a sucky weekend, will not be going back!

    Moon Valley Campground

    Very unique smaller private campground

    This was a great campsite nestled in the foothills of Northern NJ on the NY border. Small, clean with great views and great location for hiking , cruising etc. Bring your tent or use the existing glamping tents. Headed back for a fall weekend in the "dome" which has incredible views. Try it you won't be sorry.

    Never Sink Hideaway

    Full of Trash

    I just arrived at this location and it is filled with trash. Do NOT book here. There are houses right behind and it’s just off the side of a dirt road. The river isn’t even visible.

Guide to Bloomingburg

Camping sites near Bloomingburg, New York vary from family-oriented resorts to more secluded woodland settings within the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. The terrain features elevations ranging from 400 to 1,800 feet, creating varied camping environments from riverside locations to more elevated forested settings. Most campgrounds in the region maintain distinct seasonal operations with many smaller operations closing entirely between November and April due to freezing temperatures.

What to do

Water activities on the Neversink River: Oakland Valley Campground offers direct river access for fishing and wading. "We spent most of early spring at Oakland Valley right on the river. Even though covid really forced a shutdown on activities, this one was of my kids favorite places of the year. They loved to fish and play in the river, explore the woods and ride bikes around," notes one visitor.

Hiking at Winding Hills Park: Explore maintained trails around the lake at Winding Hills Park. "The trails to walk on are perfect to get out of the campsite for a few hours," according to a recent camper. The park features woodland paths suitable for various skill levels with benches positioned around the lake.

Recreational facilities at Jellystone: Jellystone Park Gardiner offers extensive recreation options including laser tag and water features. "Nice pool that is shallow so you can relax and let the little ones go in the water park section alone or they have a 3 ft pool also. My older kids preferred a deeper pool but they still had a great time there they have lasertag which they enjoy. And a bounce pillow," describes one family's experience.

What campers like

Private riverside sites: Several campgrounds near Bloomingburg offer camping directly adjacent to flowing water. At Korns Campgrounds, "Site 90 was real nice. Fairly secluded and Surrounded by a stream. Electrical and water on every site was a bonus," according to a recent visitor.

Quiet mid-week stays: Camping areas are typically less crowded Monday through Thursday. "We were there in late October, towards the end of the season, and there were only a few other campers there, and it was a weekend! So nice to have the whole place feel so quiet and desolate," reports a camper at Winding Hills Park.

Shaded woodland settings: Many sites offer natural tree cover, providing relief during summer heat. At Boulder Point Campground, campers appreciate the natural surroundings: "This property has several sites for you to setup your tent, camper, van, or RV (only small tow behinds or popups, no large RVs)." Sites with more tree coverage typically fill first during reservation periods.

What you should know

Bathroom facilities vary significantly: Condition and availability of bathroom facilities differ widely between campgrounds. At Kittatinny Campground, "The bathrooms are spaced out. No running water except for pump founded outside of the bathrooms. Toilets are pump flushed. Showers are only located INSIDE High Point State Park, not throughout the campsites."

Site spacing and noise considerations: Proximity between sites affects privacy and noise levels. One camper noted about Jellystone Park Gardiner: "This is a very nice campground for families. Has a lot of activities and facilities for campers. It is a bit more open and campsite can be a bit close to each other. But the place was very clean a friendly."
